 Post Polio Syndrome
Post Polio Syndrome is the progressive deterioration of the nerves and the leg muscles which causes atrophy of the muscles and leads to the inability to walk unaided. It many times leads to loss of strength in the arms also. The person&#8217;s sense of balance usually becomes worse and they end up [...]]]></description>

 Post Polio Syndrome</p>
<p>Post Polio Syndrome is the progressive deterioration of the nerves and the leg muscles which causes atrophy of the muscles and leads to the inability to walk unaided. It many times leads to loss of strength in the arms also. The person&#8217;s sense of balance usually becomes worse and they end up in a wheelchair. The progression of the polio type symptoms can happen 20 to 60 years after the original episode.</p>
<p>New research has discovered that the effects of Polio can be greatly reversed!</p>
<p>In the old days the medical establishment told patients with polio that a virus entered into the spinal fluid and attacked a nerve and killed the nerve. The patient was then told that the dead nerve would prevent the leg from further growth and development.</p>
<p>The truth is that the virus did enter into the spinal fluid but it did not kill the nerve. The nerve is still alive it is only dehydrated. The nerve can be rehydrated and brought back to life!</p>
<p>Here is how it happened.</p>
<p>There are two types of infection, bacterial and viral. Bacteria are larger and cannot get past the blood-brain barrier into the spinal fluid. Viruses are much smaller and are able to sneak past the blood-brain barrier into the spinal fluid and cause infections. Polio, meningitis, chicken pox, and the common cold are all viruses. The polio virus is able to get past the body&#8217;s immune system and into the spinal fluid and cause an inflammation of the meninges. This is where the term meningitis comes from. The spinal fluid is the same fluid that is removed when a spinal tap is done. There are three layers of the meninges. They are called the dura matter, pia matter, and the arachnoid matter. When a virus enters into the spinal fluid and causes inflammation then the meninges begins to swell. If the swelling or inflammation continues long enough then the meninges begin to touch and stick together like flypaper. This forms an adhesion. Adhesions form scar tissue which interferes with the proper flow of the spinal fluid. The fluid now has to go around the scar tissue. The area just the other side of the adhesion begins to dry out. That nerve will then become dehydrated. Wherever that nerve goes will now be affected. For instance if the dehydrated nerve goes to the stomach then ulcers can develop.  If the nerve goes to the pancreas then diabetes can develop.</p>
<p>Over time the scar tissue continues to contract and cause more problems. This can take 20 to 60 years. Post Polio Syndrome is really a symptom of progressive dehydration of the central nervous system followed by dehydration of the peripheral nerves.</p>
<p>This dehydration of the central nervous system can be reversed by stretching the spine, loosening up the adhesions in the meningeal system, and allowing the spinal fluid to flow properly again.</p>
<p>Advanced Central Nervous System Restoration will accomplish this in 24-48 treatments spaced out over a 6-12 month period with annual follow-ups.</p>
